국내에서 재배되고 있는 고추(Capsicum annuum L.)로부터 분리된 TMV pepper 계통을 density gradient centrifugation을 이용하여 순화하였다. 이로부터 바이러스의 total RNA를 분리하였고 RT-PCR에 의하여 TMV pepper 계통의 외피단백질 cDNA를 합성, 증폭하였으며 이를 pBluescript II SK- 벡터에 재조합하였다. 본 실험에서 바이러스 외피단백질과 3` non-coding region을 포함하는 재조합 클론 p1561과 p1562로부터 염기서열을 분석하였고 그 결과로 477 염기의 외피단백질 유전자를 포함하는 691 염기가 합성되었음을 확인하였으며 이것과 TMV common 계통으로부터 합성된 외피단백질 cDNA와의 최대 유사도는 69%였다. 또한 유추된 아미노산 서열에서 이들 두 계통간의 최대 유사도는 81%였다.

Twelve Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) isolates were isolated from genetically modified (GM) and non-GM Capsicum annuum in two GM fields, Namyangju and Anseong, and their properties were investigated in this study. Coat protein (CP) gene of the CMV isolates were synthesized by RT-PCR using genus-specific primers which designed to amplify a DNA fragment of 950 bp. Purified cDNA fragments were cloned into the pGEMT easy vector for sequence determination. Nucleotide sequences (internal 657 bp) of CMV isolates were compared with Fny-CMV CP sequences and there were no significant collection site specific sequence similarities found. When predicted amino acid sequences (219 amino acids) were compared with Fny-CMV CP amino acids sequences, there were 96.8% to 97.3% similarities found from Namyangju collections and 95.9% to 96.8% similarities from Anseong collections. The phylogenetic analysis with nucleotide sequences showed definite differences in CMVs which have been isolated from the two regions.

Genomic RNA sequence of a tobamovirus infecting Eutrema wasabi plant(TMV-W) was determined. The RNA is composed 6,298 nucleotide and contains four OREs encoding the protein of 180KD(OREI), 130KD(ORE2),30KD(ORF3) and 18KD(coat protein, ORF4). ORE4, ORF 3, ORF 2 and ORF 1 are overlaped by 130, 20 and 40 nucleotides, and the overapping region can be folded into a stable hairpin styucture. This includes the 3'non-coding region of 238 nucleotides, coat protein gene(537 nucleotides,179 amino acid), 30KD movement protein gene(825 nucleotides, 275 amino acid), 13(IKD protein gene(1,896 nucleotides, 632 amino acid) and 180KD protein gene(2,958 nucleotides, 986 amino acid). The genomic RNA sequence was compared with homologous regions of eleven other tobamoviruses. TMV-WTE was similar to TMV-WSF(98.6%) in nucleotide sequence.

Tobacco mosaic virus(TMV) coat protein cDNA was transformed to Nicotiana tabacum cv. NC82 and the transgenic tobacco plants resistant to TMV infection were isolated in the next generation. The expression of TMV coat protein cDNA and genetic stability of the fifth generation of TMV resistant transgenic tobacco plants at the higher temperature were investigated. The TMV coat protein cDNA was amplified by genomic PCR in all the TMV resistant transgenic tobacco plants. The TMV coat protein expressed in the transgenic tobacco plants was detected at very low level by immunoblot hybridization. Even in tansgenic plants that showed the viral symptom only on very late sucker growth (delay type plants), the coat protein expression in the suckers was much less than that of susceptible tobacco infected with TMV. The TMV coat protein expressed in the transgenic tobacco plants was below 0.01% of total protein. Transcription and expression of the coat protein cDNA in delay type plants were observbed at high temperature (38$^{\circ}C$), and TMV replication was suppressed at both 28$^{\circ}C$ and 38$^{\circ}C$. This indicates that unlike the resistance conferred by 'N' gene. TMV resistance of transgenic tobacco plant won't break down at high temperature.

Aster yomena로부터 분리한 오이 모자이크 바이러스(cucumber mosaic virus) (CMV-As)의 RNA4로부터 완전한 길이의 cDNA를 합성하고 그 전체적인 염기서열(1,043 nt`s)을 결정하였다. CMV-As RNA4는 73개의 염기로 구성된 5`말단의 leader 부위, 657개의 염기로 구성된 외피단백질(coat protein) 유전자 부위 및 312개의 염기로 구성된 3` 말단의 비번역 부위로 구성되어 있음을 확인하였다. 외피단백질 유전자 부위의 염기서열을 다른 계통의 CMV와 비교해 볼 때 그 염기서열이 보전적으로 존재하고 있으나 그 외의 부분은 다양함을 확인하였다. 특히 3` 말단부위의 61개의 염기로 구성된 부위(959-1019)는 다른 계통의 CMV에서는 상당히 유사하지만 CMV-As도 다른 CMV처럼 tRNA와 유사한 구조를 역시 형성함을 확인하였다. CMV-As의 RNA4 염기서열을 다른 계통의 CMV와 비교할 때 CMV-I17F와 가장 유사하였으며(91.9%) S형의 CMV-M과는 가장 낮은 동일성을 보였다(71.1%). 외와 같은 염기성열의 비교 결과와 EcoRI 제한효소 인식부위의 존재로 미루어 CMV-As는 WT형으로 분류된다.

The studies of marine viruses in terms of viral isolation and detection have been limited due to the high mutation rate and genetic diversity of marine viruses. Of the modern methods currently used to detect marine viruses, serological methods based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are the most common. They depend largely on the quality of the antibodies and on highly purified suitable antigens. Recently, a new experimental system for using viral capsid protein as an antigen has been developed using the yeast surface display (YSD) technique. In the present study, the capsid protein gene of the red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) was expressed and purified via YSD and HA-tagging systems, respectively. Two regions of the RGNNV capsid protein gene, RGNNV1 and RGNNV2, were individually synthesized and subcloned into a yeast expression vector, pCTCON. The expressions of each RGNNV capsid protein in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain EBY100 were indirectly detected by flow cytometry with fluorescently labeled antibodies, while recognizing the C-terminal c-myc tags encoded by the display vector. The expressed RGNNV capsid proteins were isolated from the yeast surface through the cleavage of the disulfide bond between the Aga1 and Aga2 proteins after ${\beta}$-mercaptoethanol treatment, and they were directly detected by Western blot using anti-HA antibody. These results indicated that YSD and HA-tagging systems could be applicable to the expressions and purification of recombinant RGNNV capsid proteins.

Expression vector (pGEX-Tu) for the coat protein (CP) gene of turnip mosaic virus Ca strain (TuMV-Ca) was constructed by incorporation of TuMV CP gene into pGEX-KG vector which had ${\beta}$-galactosidase gene and IPTG (isopropylthio-${\beta}$-D-galactoside) induction site. The results of ELISA and western hybridization indicated that optimal condition of the expression were when IPTG and western hybridization indicated that optimal condition of the expression were when IPTG induction was carried out on YTA medium with ampicillin in 2 hours after the E. coli seed inoculation ($A_{595}$=0.1/ml). TuMV CP gene was expressed with GST (Glutathion S-Transferase) gene fusion system, and the size of fusion protein was estimated to be 59kDa, for TuMV CP was 33 kDa and GST was 26 kDa.

The red seabream iridovirus (RSIV), which belongs to the iridoviridae, causes infectious fish diseases in many Asian countries, leading to considerable economic losses to the aquaculture industry. Using the yeast surface display (YSD) technique, a new experimental system was recently developed for the detection and identification of a variety of marine viruses. In this study, a coat protein gene of RSIV was synthesized based on the nucleotide sequence database and subcloned into the yeast expression vector, pCTCON2. The expression of viral coat proteins in the yeast strain, EBY100, was detected by flow cytometry and Western blot analysis. Finally, they were isolated from the yeast surface through a treatment with ${\beta}$-mercaptoethanol. The data suggests that the YSD system can be a useful method for acquiring coating proteins of marine viruses.
